Statue of Melania Trump stolen near US first lady's Slovenian hometown

READ JB's COMMENTS BELOW

In short:

A bronze statue of US first lady Melania Trump near to her hometown in Slovenia has been sawn off at the feet and removed.

Local police are investigating the theft of the statue, which was erected five years ago to replace a wooden monument burnt down by arsonists.

What's next?

Police in central Slovenia say they are working to track down who is responsible for the statue's removal.

Police in Slovenia are investigating the disappearance of a bronze statue of the United States's first lady, Melania Trump, which was sawed off at the feet and carried away from her hometown.

The life-size sculpture near Sevnica in central Slovenia, where Melanija Knavs was born in 1970, was unveiled in 2020 during US President Donald Trump's first term in office.

It replaced a wooden statue that had been set on fire earlier that year.

Police spokesperson Alenka Drenik Rangus said on Friday that the police were informed about the theft of the statue on Tuesday.

She said police were working to track down those responsible.

According to Slovenian media reports and the statue's creator, American conceptual artist Brad Downey, the bronze replica was sawed off at the ankles and removed.

Franja Kranjc, who works at a bakery in Sevnica which sells cakes with Ms Trump's name in support of the first lady, said the stolen statue would not be missed.

"I think no-one was really proud of this statue, not even the first lady of the USA,"

he said. "So I think it's OK that it's removed."

The original wooden statue was torched in July 2020. The rustic figure was cut from the trunk of a linden tree by local artist Ales Zupevc and showed the first lady in a pale blue dress like the one she wore at Mr Trump's presidential inauguration in 2017.

Mr Downey said he learnt about the theft while preparing a new project in Germany and he was "a bit sad that it's gone".

"My feeling [is] that it has something to do with the new election [of Donald Trump], but who knows, right?" he said.

Mr Downey added that when the original statue was burnt "it didn't feel right", so he decided to replace it with a bronze copy which he has described as an "anti-monument, anti-propaganda".

Ms Trump's arrival in the White House when her husband became president raised hope he might one day visit her homeland, something that has yet to happen. The first lady left the EU-member nation when it was still part of communist Yugoslavia.

In Sevnica, some 90 kilometres east of the capital Ljubljana, she has inspired numerous products, including cakes and chocolates, named after her.

The replica bronze statue has no obvious resemblance with the first lady.

JB COMMENTS :- I have to say, WHAT AN UGLY UGLY STATUE and it is no wonder someone sawed it off at the heels and stole it, having set the original wooden one on fire. The statue reminds me of the painting of Christ the cleaning lady thought she would ' touch up' with her paints and COMPLETELY destroyed an ancient painting. The statue looks like a joke, a school project for infants to offer who have never painted or sculptured before. Mind you, it probably suits the personality of Melania Trump as she seems somewhat vacuous and shallow without a single thought or idea of her own, as everything she does with Trump she is paid handsomely for - so she aint that dumb... AND - ER - ISN'T THAT WAS PROSTITUTES DO... You know, charge for their time... ???

Question - Clearly from an American:-

Are Europeans oblivious to the fact that Donald Trump is entitled to the right to live in nearly 40 different nations in Europe due to his German and Scottish parents as Germany remains in the EU, which has bilateral agreements with Schengen nations ?

Not really. He is entitled to apply for citizenship which would most likely be denied due to his criminal record. We don't just let anyone in.

FUNNY STORY>>>

Dolly Parton and Queen Elizabeth went to the Pearly GatesDolly Parton and Queen Elizabeth went to the Pearly Gates on the same day. They both met with an Angel to find out if they would be admitted to Heaven. The angel said

"Unfortunately, there's only one space in Heaven today so I must decide which one of you will be admitted."

The Angel asked Dolly if there was some particular reason why she should go to Heaven. Dolly took off her top and said,

"Look at these, they're the most perfect brests God ever created and I'm sure it will please God to be able to see them every day, for eternity."

The Angel thanked Dolly, and asked Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth the same question.

The Queen walked over to a toilet, pulled the lever and flushes it without saying a word. The Angel immediately said,

"OK, your Majesty, you may go into Heaven."

Dolly was outraged and asked, "What was that all about? I showed you two of God's own perfect creations and you turned me down. She simply flushed a commode and she got admitted to Heaven ! Would you explain that to me ? "

"Sorry, Dolly," said the Angel, "but even in Heaven, a royal flush beats a pair - no matter how big they are."
